同学你好，该知识点来自沪江网校《英语零基础直达PETS三级/公共英语三级【年中特惠班】》的课程，想要更系统的学习，欢迎进入课程学习。不仅可以和更多的同学一起学习，而且还有老师、助教随时的学习指导和知识点解答哦。

同学好：
I rang the bell and was not surprised to see that Hugh was still as fat as ever.
这里and 是并列连词，连接动词rang 和系动词was。
I rang the bell “我按了门铃”；
and was not surprised to see that Hugh was still as fat as ever “（我）一点也不吃惊看到Hugh像以前一样胖”；里面有be surprised to do “做某事很吃惊”；that ... ever 是to see 的宾语从句。

祝学习愉快！
